        total: 0
      retained:

        total: 0

Since a transaction has been prepared its garbage (produced stories
and replaced tuples) cannot be deleted because they are recognized
as used in read-view even if there are no transactions in read-view.
This problem makes it difficult to test the memory monitoring system,
so this patch solves the problem.

Commit/rollback triggers are run asynchronously, upon receiving the
write status from WAL. We can't run them in the original fiber that
submitted the WAL request, because it would open a time window between
writing a transaction to WAL and committing it in tx, which could lead
to violating the cascading rolback principles. As a result,
commit/rollback triggers run with admin privileges.

Let's fix this issue by temporarily setting session and credentials to
the original fiber's for running commit/rollback triggers.

Tarantool used to crash if launched with multiple -e or -l options without
a space between the option and the value, e.g.: `tarantool -ea -eb`.
It happened because optv[] was allocated for argc==3 items, while 4
options were written to it after parsing (-e, a, -e, b).
This patch allocates optv[] for the maximum possible number of options:

Introduce new option IPROTO_TXN_ISOLATION (0x59) in the body of
IPROTO_BEGIN request, so a user can set isolation level similar

enum txn_isolation_level {
	/** Take isolation level from global default level. */
	TXN_ISOLATION_DEFAULT,
	/** Allow to read committed, but not confirmed changes. */
	TXN_ISOLATION_READ_COMMITTED,

Now memtx TX manager tries to determine the best isolation level
by itself. There could be two options:
* READ_COMMITTED, when the transaction see changes of other tx
that are committed but not yet confirmed (written to WAL)
* READ_CONFIRMED, when the transaction see only confirmed changes.

Introduce a simple way to specify the isolation level explicitly:
box.begin{tx_isolation = 'default'} - the same as box.begin().
box.begin{tx_isolation = 'read-committed'} - READ_COMMITTED.
box.begin{tx_isolation = 'read-confirmed'} - READ_CONFIRMED.
box.begin{tx_isolation = 'best-effort'} - old automatic way.

Intrduce a bit more complex but potentially faster way to set
isolation level, like that:
my_level = box.tnx_isolation_level.READ_COMMITTED
..
box.begin{tx_isolation = my_level}

For simplicity of implementation also support symmetric values as
'READ_COMMITTED' and box.tnx_isolation_level['read-committed'].

Introduce a new box.cfg option - default_tx_isolation, that is
used as a default when a transaction is started. The option is
dynamic and possible values are the same as in box.begin, except
'default' which is meaningless.

In addition to string value the corresponding numeric values can
be used in both box.begin and box.cfg.

When a transaction is started without specifying isolation level
(which is impossible now) the transactional manager must choose
the transaction level automatically, that means that is must
detemine whether the transaction can see other prepared changes
or not. The best effort that we can made is to check if current
transaction is read-only or not. For read-only transactions
there are hope and fear that it will remain read-only, and the
best choice is not to see prepared changes. But if the transaction
has DML statements - it must see prepared changed.

Note that a read-only transaction can became read-write if it make
a DML statement. But if a transaction ignores some other prepared
change and then makes a DML, there are no other options except
abort that transaction - it could not be serialized anymore.

Internally space's indexes can containt dirty tuples that are
invisible for user. That's why there's special adjustment in
space:count() that substracts number of invisible tuple in the
space.

By a mistake that check thought that all prepared statements are
visible, which is wrong for autocommit reads, like standalone
space:count() without explicit transaction.

Fix it by using common for all reads practice: ignore prepared
statements if current transaction is NULL.

Memtx TX manager stores a pointer to deleting statement in prepared
story. This pointer is set in two cases:
1. a statement deletes (or overwrites) a tuple
2. a story becomes prepared while other inprogress TX overwrites it

By design a tuple can be deleted only by primary index, the case
when a transaction overwrites somehting in secondary index but does
not overwrite the same tuple in primary index is prohibited. That's
why the pointer (to deleting statement) must be set by and only by
the next statement in the primary index chain.

By mistake the pointer is set also in second index chain analysis
after reordering which led to unexpected state of a story.

The patch removes the problem.

When the master is just starting up it's possible for replica's JOIN
request to arrive right in time to bypass ER_LOADING check (after master
is fully recovered) but still fail due to ER_READONLY: box.cfg.read_only
is only read and set after box_cfg() (its C part) returns.

In this case the joining replica simply exits with an error and doesn't
retry JOIN.

Let's fix that. Make ER_READONLY a recoverable error and let replica
retry joining after receiving ER_READONLY.

Anonymous nodes relied on ER_READONLY to forbid replication from
anonymous to normal replicas. That check doesn't work anymore.
So introduce explicit checks banning replication from anonymous nodes.

Note, there were some alternatives to this fix.

First of all, theoretically, we could stop firing ER_LOADING later,
after box_cfg() is complete. This solution wouldn't work because it
would lead to deadlocks: the nodes would be stuck in replicaset_sync(),
because each of them rejects replication with ER_LOADING.

Another solution would be to read the real box.cfg.read_only value
earlier, in order to allow replication right after the node finishes
recovery.
This would also be bad, because we should never let a node become
writeable before box.cfg is finished. Even after local_recovery is
complete, the node should stay read-only until it synchronizes with
other replicas.

That said, neither of the two alternatives fit, so the solution with
retrying JOIN on ER_READONLY was chosen.

Since the bug is fixed, re-enable the test in which it was discovered:
replication-py/init_storage.test.py

Also, remove replication/ddl.test.lua from fragile list, since this bug
was the only reason for its fragility.

fiber_new_ex() used to ignore fiber_attr flags when the fiber was
taken from the cache, not created anew.

It didn't matter much though for the public API, because the only
public flag in fiber_attr was FIBER_CUSTOM_STACK (which can be
set via fiber_attr_setstacksize()).

Anyway that was a bug for internal API and would lead to issues in
the future when more public flags are added. The patch fixes it.

NO_CHANGELOG=No reproducer via public API

There was a user who complained about this code crashing:

    f = fiber_new_ex(...);
    fiber_start(f);
    fiber_cancel(f);

The crash was at cancel. It happened because the fiber finished
immediately. It was already recycled after fiber_start() return.

Recycled fiber didn't have any flags, so fiber_cancel() didn't
see the fiber was already dead and tried to wake it up. It crashed
when the fiber tried to call its 'fiber->f' function which was
NULL.

In debug build the process fails earlier with an assertion on
'fiber->fid != 0'.

It can't be really fixed because the problem is the same as with
use-after-free. The fiber could be not recycled but already freed
completely, returned back to the mempool.

This patch tries to help the users by a panic with a message
saying that it wasn't just a crash, it is a bug in user's code.

There is an alternative - make fibers never return to the mempool.
Then fiber_cancel() could ignore recycled fibers. But it would
lead to another problem that if the fiber is already reused, then
fiber_cancel() would hit a totally irrelevant fiber who was
unlucky to reuse that fiber pointer. It seems worse than panic.

Same problem exists for `fiber_wakeup()`, but I couldn't figure
out how to add a panic there and not add an `if` on the normal
execution path (which includes 'ready' and 'running' fibers).

Closes #6837

NO_CHANGELOG=The same crash remains, but happens a bit earlier and
  with a message.

@TarantoolBot document
Title: `fiber_cancel()` C API clarification

The documentation must warn that the fiber passed to
`fiber_cancel()` must not be already dead unless it was set to be
joinable. Same for `fiber_wakeup()` and all the other fiber
functions. A dead non-joinable fiber could already be freed or
reused.

Fibers with custom stack couldn't be reused via cord->dead list,
but neither were ever deleted via mempool_free(). They just leaked
until the cord was destroyed. Their custom stack also leaked.

It happened for all non-joinable custom-stack fibers. That was
because fiber_destroy() simply skipped the destruction if the
fiber is the current one.

It didn't affect joinable fibers because their fiber_destroy() is
done in another fiber. Their stack was deleted, but the fiber
itself still leaked.

The fix makes so fiber_destroy() is never called for the current
fiber. Instead, cord uses an approach like in pthread library -
the fiber who wants to be deleted is saved into cord->garbage
member. When some other fiber will want to be deleted in the
future, it will firstly cleanup the previous one and put self into
its place. And so on - fibers cleanup each other.

The process is optimized for the case when the fiber to delete is
not the current one - can delete it right away then.

As a result of recording <crc32:update> method or <digest.crc32>
function wrong semantics is compiled (strictly saying, the resulting
trace produces the different result from the one yielded by
interpreter). The easiest solution is disabling JIT for particular

performance. Hence, the mentioned functions are rewritten line by line
via Lua C API to avoid JIT misbehaviour.

Added predefined system events: box.status, box.id, box.election and
box.schema.

Closes #6260

@TarantoolBot document
Title: Built-in events for pub/sub

Built-in events are needed, first of all, in order to learn who is the
master, unless it is defined in an application specific way. Knowing who
is the master is necessary to send changes to a correct instance, and
probably make reads of the most actual data if it is important. Also
defined more built-in events for other mutable properties like leader
state change, his election role and election term, schema version change
and instance state.

Built-in events have a special naming schema - their name always starts
with box.. The prefix is reserved for built-in events. Creating new events
with this prefix is banned. Below is a list of all the events + their names
and values:

1. box.id
Description - identification of the instance. Changes are extra rare. Some
values never change or change only once. For example, instance UUID never
changes after the first box.cfg. But is not known before box.cfg is called.
Replicaset UUID is unknown until the instance joins to a replicaset or
bootsa new one, but the events are supposed to start working before that -
right at listen launch. Instance numeric ID is known only after
registration. On anonymous replicas is 0 until they are registered
officially.
Value - {
    MP_STR “id”: MP_UINT; box.info.id,
    MP_STR “instance_uuid”: MP_UUID; box.info.uuid,
    MP_STR “replicaset_uuid”: MP_UUID box.info.cluster.uuid,
}

2. box.status
Description - generic blob about instance status. Its most commonly used
and not frequently changed config options and box.info fields.
Value - {
    MP_STR “is_ro”: MP_BOOL box.info.ro,
    MP_STR “is_ro_cfg”: MP_BOOL box.cfg.read_only,
    MP_STR “status”: MP_STR box.info.status,
}

3. box.election
Description - all the needed parts of box.info.election needed to find who
is the most recent writable leader.
Value - {
    MP_STR “term”: MP_UINT box.info.election.term,
    MP_STR “role”: MP_STR box.info.election.state,
    MP_STR “is_ro”: MP_BOOL box.info.ro,
    MP_STR “leader”: MP_UINT box.info.election.leader,
}

4. box.schema
Description - schema-related data. Currently it is only version.
Value - {
    MP_STR “version”: MP_UINT schema_version,
}

Built-in events can't be override. Meaning, users can't be able to call
box.broadcast(‘box.id’, any_data) etc.

The events are available from the very beginning as not MP_NIL. It's
necessary for supported local subscriptions. Otherwise no way to detect
whether an event is even supported at all by this Tarantool version. If
events are broadcast before box.cfg{}, then the following values will
available:
    box.id = {}
    box.schema = {}
    box.status = {}
    box.election = {}

This way the users will be able to distinguish an event being not supported
at all from box.cfg{} being not called yet. Otherwise they would need to
parse _TARANTOOL version string locally and peer_version in netbox.

Example usage:

 * Client:
   ```lua
   conn = net.box.connect(URI)
   -- Subscribe to updates of key 'box.id'
   w = conn:watch('box.id', function(key, value)
       assert(key == 'box.id')
       -- do something with value
   end)
   -- or to updates of key 'box.status'
   w = conn:watch('box.status', function(key, value)
       assert(key == 'box.status')
       -- do something with value
   end)
   -- or to updates of key 'box.election'
   w = conn:watch('box.election', function(key, value)
       assert(key == 'box.election')
       -- do something with value
   end)
   -- or to updates of key 'box.schema'
   w = conn:watch('box.schema', function(key, value)
       assert(key == 'box.schema')
       -- do something with value
   end)
   -- Unregister the watcher when it's no longer needed.
   w:unregister()
   ```

Implement complext foreign keys addition to field foreign keys.
They are quite similar to field foreign keys, the difference is:
* The are set in space options instead of format field definition.
* Several fields may be specified in relation.
* By design field foreign keys are more optimal.

One can set up foreign keys in space options:
box.schema.space.create(.. {.., foreign_key=<foreign_key>})
where foreign_key can be of one of the following forms:
 foreign_key={space=..,field=..}

Foreign key is a special type of constraint that makes a relation
between spaces. When declared in some space, each tuple in that
space refers to some tuple in another, foreign space. Reference is
defined in foreign key definition as a correspondence of field of
that spaces, local and remote.

Foreign key preserves that reference between tuples and consists
of two checks:
1. When a tuple is added to space with foreign space constraint,
it must be checked that there is a corresponding tuple in foreign
space, with the same values in fields according to foreign key
definitiion.
2. When a tuple is deleted from space that is a foreign space for
some other space, it must be checked that no tuple references the
deleted one.

This commit introduces field foreign keys that link spaces by
just one field. They are declared in tuple format in one of the
following forms:
 space:format{..,{name=.., foreign_key=<fkey>},..}
 space:format{..,{name=.., foreign_key={<name>=<fkey>}},..}
Where fkey has a form of a table:
 {space=<foreign space id/name>, field=<foreign field id/name>}

Introduce field constraints - limitaions for particular fields.
Each constraint must refer to a function in _func space. For the
first step we expect lua functions with body there.

Field constraint checks are very close to field type checks, so
it's natural to implement them in tuple formats. On the other hand
tuple formats belong to tuple library, that does not include
functions (func.h/c etc), so constraints are split into two parts:
- a part in tuple library that implements arbitrary constraints
 with pointers to functions that actually check constraints.
- a part in box library which uses the part above, sets particular
 check functions and handles alter etc.

There are two not-so-obvious problems that are solved here:
 - Functions in _func space must be preserved while used by such
 constraints. Func pinning is used for this purpose.
 - During initial recovery constraits are created before _func
 space recovery, so we have to pospone constraint initialization.

One can set up constraint for any field in tuple format with one
or several functions that must be present in _func space:
space:format{name='a', constraint='func1'}
space:format{name='a', constraint={name1='func1'}}
space:format{name='a', constraint={name1='func1', name2='func2'}}

So constraint(s) can be set by one function name or by lua table
with function name values. Each consraints has a name that can be
specified directly (with string key in table) or imlicitly set to
the name of function.

The check function receives two arguments: the checking value and
the name of the constraint. Also the name of the failed constraint
is present in raised exception.

The only way to pass the constraint is to return true from its
function. All other values and exception are treated as failure
(exeptions are also logged).

gpr_alloc is a small library that is designed for simplification
of allocation of several objects in one memory block. It could be
anything, but special attention is given to string objects, that
are arrays of chars.

Typical usage consist of two phases: gathering total needed size
of memory block and creation of objects in given block.

There are cases when we need to be sure that a function is not
deleted and/or removed from func cache. For example constraints:
they must hold a pointer to struct func while it's very hard to
determine whether there'a constraint that points to given func.

Implement func pin/unpin for this purpose. You can pin a func to
declare that the func must not be deleted. To have to unpin it
when the func is not needed anymore.

fselect is designed to make selects results in console better
readable for human eyes. The usage is expected to be rare and
by developers only so there's no performance requirements.

Now the API of fselect is:
s:fselect(<key>, <select+fselect option map>, <fselect option map>)

But sometimes there are cases when only some columns are needed
for analysis, while all other columns consume space on screen.

So make an option in fselect that allows to choose which columns
to output (like some other databases allows).

Add an option 'columns' in fselect options along with other its
options with list of columns (by number or name). Allow lua tables
and comma-separated-strings for that.

If options argument in fselect is string, interpret is as columns
options.
